In This Issue:
Industry Conferences Provide Opportunities to Learn, Educate The calendar has turned from October to November and I am feeling thankful that my suitcase and my health survived a grueling month of air travel and hotel stays. Such was life in the industry in the time period from September to November. In this quarter’s Smart Card Talk newsletter, the last of 2015, I write about the events and conferences I attended, hosted or participated in. Next month in this space we will publish and post the Annual Review, a publication filled with a year’s worth of activities and news available in both printed form and electronic. In this newsletter, we have an update on Alliance Councils, Councils, a Leadership Council Profile on Capgemini, new CSCIP and CSEIP recipients, and much more. Sincerely, Randy Vanderhoof Executive Director, Smart Card Alliance
